Podcast: Bernick and Schott on politics #323

Bob Bernick and Bryan Schott run down the who, what, when, where, why, how and if of the last week in Utah politics.

President Donald Trump's approval rating in Utah is underwater (just barely), but a majority of Utahns don't believe Trump's claims that the Obama administration wiretapped him during the 2016 campaign. Will Utahns reverse course on their attitudes about Trump?

Three of the leading Republicans in the state, Sen. Orrin Hatch, Rep. Jason Chaffetz and GOP Chairman James Evans have gone all-in for Trump.

Will there be any jobs left in the Trump administration after Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner takes all of them?

Democrat Scott Howell is hinting he wants to take on Sen. Orrin Hatch a third time.
